About Chris D'Onofrio

I am a Navy Veteran and served on the Bonhomme Richard. I am married and have two kids, our son is an adult and daughter our daughter just started high school. Besides axe throwing I love to be out doors wether it a fire with friends taking photos of landscapes, to fishing, shooting my bow and really anything that I can get into out in nature. I am also a true lover of the paranormal. My notable accomplishments is taking 3 rd in my bracket at the 2022 US Open and 9th overall. I have truly improved so much as I haven’t been throwing 2 years yet and moving up in the ranks gives some great sense of accomplishment.
